Ross Elijah Chaisson was 29 when he was shot and killed at his residence on Tournoir Street in Lafayette on the morning of October 4, 2022. Remembered by family as kind-hearted and always smiling, he was a devoted father to two young daughters. His relatives held a balloon release in his memory.

The man identified in connection with Chaisson’s death was 36-year-old Andres Jamal Felix. After the initial killing, Felix went on to fatally shoot two more people later that day, 25-year-old Paige Lewis and his estranged wife, 43-year-old Kawanna Kay Felix, before taking his own life when officers located him at a relative’s home. The motive for why Chaisson was targeted remains unclear to authorities and his family.

If anyone knew Ross, his routines, or why he might have been targeted, please share information that could help understand what happened.
